The Elbowed Pierrot, Caleta elna elvira (Fruhstorfer)

This is another black and white butterfly that can be seen puddling with its commoner cousin the Straight Pierrot. As its eponymous name suggests, its undersides markings present a clear elbowed black band that runs through the base of its hindwing to its forewing, bending at space 3.
